Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Elizabeth's POV: 

After returning to the banquet hall with the elders, I continued to preside over the celebration party.

All of the guests had already learned that the future queen was pregnant, which filled them with joy.

It had been a long time since such a warm and harmonious atmosphere had blessed the royal palace.

The palace had been dull and depressive ever since my husband died and Austin took over the throne.

I was glad to see it in such a lively state again.

And it was all thanks to Anthony and Jennifer.

'Dear husband, are you watching all this? Austin has been punished for his sins, and all of Anthony's sufferings have their reward.He's even about to have a child with his beloved mate.You must be happy looking at it from heaven, right?' The whole time I was sitting in the banquet hall, I couldn't help but worry about Jennifer.

So a while later, I decided to see her.

After telling the guards to keep the order in the banquet hall, I headed to the lounge.

When I opened the door, however, I was greeted by the sight of Anthony and Jennifer kissing.

Oh my God! I was so embarrassed that I hurriedly took a step back, wanting to close the door.Why had I come at such a wrong time?

 "Mother, what are you doing here?" Anthony asked before I could leave.

"Oh, it's nothing, Anthony.I was just worried about Jennifer and the baby, so I came here to check if everything was all right," I explained with a resigned sigh.

Since my presence had already been noticed by the two of them, there was no need for me to leave in a hurry.I walked into the room and sat down on the bed, supported by Anthony.

"How are you feeling, Jennifer? Should I find a nutritionist to take care of your diet?" I asked with concern, holding Jennifer's hand.

"Did you drink at the party just now? Are you okay?"

"Don't worry, Mrs.Jones, I barely had a sip of wine.And I feel much better after resting for a while.It's nothing serious.Thank you for coming here to check on me," Jennifer replied with a smile.

"Don't worry, Mom.As Jennifer's mate, I will try my best to protect her and our child," Anthony promised confidently.

I scoffed and shot him a glare.

"Don't think I didn't see what you were doing just now," I scolded Anthony.
